Smart@Fire
From Wednesday 14 December 2016 -  08:00am
To Thursday 15 December 2016 - 05:00pm

 

The conference marks the end of the Smart@fire project, the European FP7 project that aims to develop a smart Personal Protective System for firefighters.

Every year, more than 100 firefighters lose their lives whilst saving others. To reduce the risks associated with firefighting, innovative ICT solutions need to be developed and integrated in a smart Personal Protective System. However, the ICT solutions that are currently available on the market, are not fully satisfactory.

This is why the Smart@fire project went looking for innovative technologies, including:

  • Sensors to measure environmental parameters and vital body functions
  • Localization systems to determine the position
  • Data transfer and visualization systems to better assess situations

The project investigated the possibility of developing these technologies using a method of innovative procurement known as pre-commercial procurement (PCP). The PCP methodology uses a three-phased approach in which tenderers compete with each other for assignments in every phase.
